During the dficu5on of this motion, Henry C.
Murphyrfrom tho Cohimltteo on Platform" re
ported a set of resolutions. The ninth denounces
Uie usurpation and tyranny of the Itadioal nartv;
the violation or iu pledge that the conduct or
tlie war was only Tor the preservation ot the
Union, and not for the subjucatinn of the South
ern States and the overthrow of tho freedom or
speech, as the Padical presa declared; that in
stead thereor the Radical have established a
system or espionage; have disregarded tho writ
of huUtU corpiw; tiavo mado the National Capi
tol a hostile; threaten now to destroy the original
jurisdiction or tlie Supreme Court, and have ma
ligned its Justice, because or his integrity on the
trial or tlie President
The platrorm, in conclusion, declares that tho
privilege and trust or suffrage belongs exclusive
ly to the control or each State. Congress has
usurped it in violation or the Constitution.
Tho platform further specifically denounces
tho reconstruction acts of Congress as a usurpa
tion, unconstitutional and void; demands that
the pensions of soldiers and sailora be mithfullv
jiaiu, and that the public lands should be reserv
ed lor homesteads; thanks Andrew Johnson lor
resisting the nueresMons of Congress.
Tho platform further demands tho payment or
the public dent or the United fctntes as rapidly
as practicable; all money drawn from the people
by taxation, except so much as may bo requisite
for the necessities or the government economi
cally administered, should bo honestly applied
to such payment, and when the obligations or
tho government do not oxprossly state upon
their ace. or the law under which they woro is
sued does not provide that they shall be paid in
coin, they ought, in right and justice, to be paid
in lawful money of tho United States.
In conclusion, the platform invites men of all
parties to unite upon this platform.
Mr. Murphy moved the prevlons question on

change or opiaion had with the Democratic Con-
tendon ftdlv etinnruied the former estimate or
the puriU aul patriotism or that body. and fully
justifies the belief that, in the selection of candi
dates and th construction of t platform the Con
vention will be governed by tho spirit or the
ddre adoited by this body; therefore
JfraVmi. That we support their nominees, and
on our return home will induce, our late comrades

GKxnn.vi. Cauleton, who formerly com
manded Arizona and Xew Mexico, has been
promoted to be Brigadier Goneral and Major
General by brevet in Uie United States Army.
It will be remembered thnt tho General re
ceived this honor over a year ago. but on ac
count of a little "unpks!int!!e," that sprang
forth in tho shape of charges against his honor,
honesty and integrity, Government thought
tho matter over and curtailed him of his
titles. At request of the Goneral, Courts of
Inquiry were instituted to examine into the
correctness of the chirges ; and failod to find
nnything to sustain tho charges Hq than
went East, saw tho General of the Armies of
tlie United States, who expressed himsolf
satisfied that he, Carleton, was a badly abused
man, when the suspended honor, pay and
emoluments, were conferred upon him. We
hnppcnod to be in Arizona when it was un
der Carlcton'a command, and can testify to
the fact that ho took a deep interest in the
Territory. With tho exception of one or two
petty, tyrannical acts, said to iiavo been com
mitted upon citizens of tho United States in
New Mexico, wo know of nothing bad of tlie
General, nnd are satisfied with his promotion.
The Chicago Iribune thinks that it would
bo better for Congress to repeal tlie duty on
railroad iron, titan to .grant nny nioro subsi
dies to railroad companies. Upon this point
that paper saj's :
"This would bo equivalent to a donation
of 1,5C0 per mile in gold, 2,18 i in curren
cy nnd it would cost nothing. The Govern
ment would lose nothing in revenue, bocnuso
under oxisting laws tho subMdized railroads
arc not allowed to buy foreign iron at any
price, and would not be allowed to accept it
as a free gift. We maintain that a tlmwti&k
$2,184 per milo to a railroad is hotter than n
loan of $10,000 per iiiIIq."
Wc agree with tho Tribune but know that
so long as Congress is swayed by tho manu
facturing States, it dan not repeal the tariff
laws, nnd until that body becomes comiiosod
of free trade Democrats, it will do but very
littlo good to talk about abolishing tho pres
ent odious tariff system.
Wf. havo received several copies of tho
Staif Capital Ilrportir, a large, good-looking

fornia, now, that tho General has gono Fust,
takes back all it has ever said about our lit tlo
Governor, ami lauds hint to the skies. Tho
old weather-hen hays she llns resolved n pri
vate letter from this Territory which stated
tlint McConnick wns elected by u larger vote
tlmti wns over before rocoived by n candidate
in this Territory, ami thnt "tho reliuko is a
severe one to tho Anizow Minkh and the
Secession element of tho Territory " Hn, ha,
ha! Whatnjoko. lloluiko, indeed. Why,
instond of the result of tho Into election being
a rolniko to the Minkh, it was a victory for
it. North of tho fliln,whoro a largo majority
of tho white peoplo of tho Territory reide,
and where tho Minp.u is published, McCor-
mick recuivod less than onu-thinl of the votes,
although ho rosidml in this section over lour
years. It sickon us to hear an old disunion
sheet like the Alia talk about "secession cle
ment." You old sinner, how you crawfish
ami show your ignorance, when you tay that
McConnick is "a gentleman of correct in
stincts." Wens your dear soul, McConnick
did not claim to lie a Republican in the can
vas, nnd most of the "accession dement" you
prate about, voted for him. In fact, the Re
publican jwrty of Ariwina, ns well as the
Democratic, look uiion McCormirk as n guer
rilla in politics as well as in overytbing else.
He was the candidate of men who liavo grown
rich from oil' fat government contract, and
cheap Mexican labor, and they elected him
by illegal Mexican votes. McConnick knows,
and tho Alta ought to know, that but for
tlie basest kind of trickery, ho would never
stand where- ho now doe, winner in tho
fight.
Tmk Senate of West Virginia lias adopted
a declaration, by a vote of 18 to 2, that
they will not favorably consider the pe
tition of any " reliel " lawyer to Ik? release!
from tho operations of the 'iW Oath law. un
lem aceonnmnicd by a writton renunciation
of "ceJM0ti" doctrlnos.
AVrt'H wager a new hat that the Senate of
the illegitimate StaU WtH Virginia is coin
posed of one-horse iiettifojrgers, who have
not the talents to copo with "rebel" lawyers;
original disunianitts and greedy mountebanks
who would be " loyal " to any sort of a gov
eminent that would furnish them brd and
buttor. This everlasting whine about " loy
alty " ia sickeniuir ami out of nlace in a free
country, where all are loyal to the constitu
tion, tho source of all jmt governing powers.
CArr. Ilnxnv Iivc, the slayer of the ceb

Amnesty Proclamation. The following
contains the pith of President Johnson's
Fourth of July Amnesty Proclamation:
"Now, therefore, be it kwwn that I, An
drew Johnson, President of the United States,
by virtue of the Constitution and in Uie
name of the people of the United States, do
hereby proclaim, tinrouditkHiid and without
reservation, to all and every jieron wlio, di
rectly or indirectly, (nrticipated iu the late
insurrection or rebellion, excepting euch m
son or persons as may be under preaontmont
or indictment in the United State Court
having competent juridiction, ujKin charges
of treason or other felonv, full tmrdoii and
amnesty for the otlence of treMon against the
Unitml'States, or of adhering to their enemies
during tho lata civil war. with restoration uf
all rights, oxcopt as to slaves, and except alo,
ns to any oropertv, of any iiereon who may

mo cniiou oiaiu.
How it Wohkj. Louisiana is furnisliine
us n sample of what will bo tho workings of
nogro political equality in every placo whore
the nogroes arc tho nioet numerous portion
of the population. Louisiana was recon
structed under the law of Congress. It elect
ed a Convention, which framed a Constitu
tion, which was adopted by the people. Un
der that Constitution, a Stato Lcgitlaturo
was chosen, the controlling jwrtion being the
black element. The verr firnt act of the ma
jority was to ignore the provisions of the
Constitution mado by the people, and to
trample upon tho rights of tho minority. So
outrageous was the conduct of the majority
that tlio United States military had to be
called Out to compel them to respect tho laws
thoy had made themselves. For throo years
the Army of tho Unitod States has been used
to force negro sullrago upon tho country;
henceforth it must bo used to comiwl tho ne
gro tuifiragers to behavo themselves, obey
their own laws, and rospoct the rights of the
minority. This is roconstniction and repub
licanism, with a vengeance. F. Cell.
Thk Senate has voted to abolish the bu
reau of statistics, and it is to be hoped the
ITouso will concur, as tho bureau has been
nothing but a tisoleas expense. The 6amo
course Ought to bo taken witli tho bureau of
education. Tho Senato has also decicidod to
end the contract with tho publishers of tho
f7iot, and have tho dobatoa printod at tlio
government oliice. Congress is beginning to
show a most commondablo spirit ofoconoiny,
for tho exercise of which thero is still amjilo
room. S. F. Timet.
